Have you ever seen those nature shows where scientists drag a fake seal behind a boat so they can provoke sharks to attack? The form of the helpless seal is irresistible to sharks, and they attack nearly every time. In a way, some professional poker players are like those ravenous sharks: they're looking for easy prey. They're searching for signs of weakness that will allow them to pick up pots with little resistance. These pros can make life very difficult for an amateur. But there are ways that an amateur can take advantage of a pro's aggressive instincts. One useful play is called the weak lead. Using a weak lead, a player bets out a relatively small percentage of the pot. For example, if there's 800 in the pot, the amateur would put out a bet of less than half - say 300. Looking at this bet, an aggressive pro may assume that his opponent doesn't have much of a hand. He may guess that the bet indicates some sort of modest connection with the flop or even a poor bluff. The pro may look at this bet and come over the top with very little, or maybe nothing at all. Knowing that a player is on the lookout for these sorts of signals means you can offer up a weak bet when your hand is actually very strong. Say you're in a tournament and you raise with pocket Jacks. The pro calls behind you. The flop then comes 2-6-J rainbow, giving you a very strong hand. This is a great time to put out a weak lead. A small bet may entice the pro to believe you have something like A-K and missed entirely. He may raise right there, at which point you can decide to either call or pop it again. Or he may call your initial bet with the hopes of taking you off the hand on the turn. You can then check to the pro on the turn, and be all but certain that he's going to bet, at which point you can put in a raise. Note that leading will often work out much better than check-calling or check-raising. A check-raise is going to scare off the pro; he may even lay down a pretty big hand when he sees that sort of indication of strength. And if you check-call, the pro will probably check the turn and then fold to a bet on the river. The weak lead can convince a pro to put in a lot of chips on the flop. That may be the best way to extract the most chips from a tough opponent.

Using laser-cooled atoms strongly coupled to a high finesse optical cavity, we have performed real-time continuous measurements of single atomic trajectories in terms of the interaction energy (Eint) with the cavity. Individual transit events reveal a shot-noise limited measurement (fractional) sensitivity of 4×10-4/√Hz to variations in Eint/ℏ within a bandwidth of 1300 kHz. The strong coupling of atom and cavity leads to a maximum interaction energy greater than the kinetic energy of an intracavity laser-cooled atom, even under weak cavity excitation. Evidence of mechanical light forces for intracavity photon number <1 has been observed. The quantum character of the nonlinear optical response of the atom-cavity system is manifested for the trajectory of a single atom.

Tech Wire: Do 'cookies' harm computer?
If you use a computer, then you have undoubtedly heard the term "cookies" in the past. Anything from clearing your cookies to downloading more or not enough has likely come up in the past. The question is: What are cookies, do you need them and are they harmful?
Cookies, by definition, are unique to you. This is what cookies are designed to do: When you log in to your online account (E-mail, Facebook, etc.), you download a file called a cookie that is unique to you. Once you download this cookie, that website, such as Facebook, now knows that you are in fact you and it keeps you logged in to only your account. This is how a website knows to bring John Doe to John Doe's e-mail account when he logs in and not to someone else's account.
The issue with cookies is that they, like almost everything else, have been exploited. Many cookies are now downloaded to your computer that actually track which websites you go to, how long you stay there, what you do and more. This is why sometimes you may have noticed that you get a spam message in your e-mail based on a website you recently visited. A tracking cookie saw that you navigated to a website about car parts, saw you logged in to your e-mail and then sent you a spam message based on car parts.
The cookies that track where you go are typically placed within advertisement images on websites. Sometimes the websites have partnerships with advertising agencies and will put a tracking cookie on the website itself.
Different Types of Cookies
There is some confusion regarding cookies that should be cleared up. There are two types of cookies that exist: First-party and Third-party. For example, if you go to Amazon.com and your computer downloads a cookie from Amazon, then that is a first-party cookie. However, if you go to Amazon.com and you download a cookie from an advertisement, then that is a third-party cookie.
This means that just because a cookie exists on your computer from, say, a pornographic website does not mean you went to a pornographic website; it means you went to a website that happened to download a cookie to your computer from a separate website possibly looking to advertise pornographic material. This distinction is important because so-called "IT forensics" will often claim that cookies on your computer reveal what websites you browsed to. This all depends on the type of cookie it is and how it was downloaded, not necessarily where it came from.
So those are the basics of what cookies are, what type of cookies exists and how they can be good or bad. If you're concerned about bad cookies, I suggest installing "Ad Block Plus" for your web browser and enabling the "Disable Tracking" feature. Couple this along with the immunization features of SpyBot and SpywareBlaster and you are on your way to defending yourself against tracking cookies in the future.

Ken Mondschein is a scholar, college professor, and author with expertise in subjects ranging from the Middle Ages to modern pop culture, as well as (fittingly for a historian of the Middle Ages and Renaissance) a fencing master. He received his PhD in history from Fordham University, has also studied at SUNY Buffalo, Boston University, and Harvard, and was a Fulbright scholar to France. Though Ken's scholarly concentration is premodern Europe, he has taught, lectured, spoken, consulted, and published on everything from the origins of contemporary sexual mores to medieval science to the political uses of the past, and worked with organizations ranging fom the J. Paul Getty Museum to the History Channel to the United States Military Academy at West Point.
Ken began writing professionally in his late teens. He has authored several books, and his popular-audience work has appeared in the New York Press, various consumer magazines, as a columnist for Nerve.com and The Faster Times, and elsewhere.
As an authority on, and instructor of, historical fencing (a discipline also known as Historical European Martial Arts, or HEMA), Ken is the translator of several historical fencing treatises and was employed at the Higgins Armory Museum in Worcester (where he was a Research Fellow) until the Museum's closing in 2013. He also teaches an undergraduate class on the history and practice of fencing at Westfield State University. Ken's work with the history of swordsmanship originates from the same love of the past and desire to relate it to the present—and to teach others—that led him to become an academic; one of his goals in this is to show how the value of the study of such sources to historians of art, ideas, society, and science. Ken currently teaches fencing privately in Western and Central Massachusetts.
Born, raised, and having spent most of his professional life in New York City and also having lived in Buffalo, Boston, and Paris, Ken currently resides near Northampton, Massachusetts. He has made many radio and TV appearances in support of his work, and is available for consultation and interviews. Publishers may contact Ken through his literary agent, Scott Gould of RLR Associates. His academic curriculum vitae may be downloaded here, his long-form personal curriculum vitae here, and he may be contacted personally at <his first name> at <this URL>.

Redbirds Set to Compete in the Drake Relays
April 26, 2012
Illinois State @ the drake relays
NORMAL, Ill. - The Illinois State men's and No. 12-ranked women's track & field teams head to Des Moines, Iowa, for the 103rd running of the prestigious Drake Relays. The meet starts Thursday for the Redbirds with the 800-meter run at 4 p.m., and concludes Saturday, with the 4X400-meter relays at 5:55 p.m. The women's team enters the meet with their highest NCAA Division I ranking in program history and has produced two Olympic trials qualifiers. Spearheading the women's pursuit will be Brittany Smith, Aisha Praught and Leigh Petranoff. Smith enters the meet with a top-10 ranking in all three of her disciplines and a No. 1 ranking in the shot put in the Missouri Valley Conference. She holds every Illinois State throwing record and multiple All-American certificates. Her competition this weekend will prove tough, as the meet will house the top-10 best throwers from across the nation in Division I. She begins to duke it out with the best Friday, as she takes to the shot put ring at 11:30 a.m. Coming off a record-breaking performance in the 3,000-meter steeplechase last weekend, Praught enters the meet looking to set the stage for her outdoor conquest, this time in the 1,500-meter run. Already ranked No. 1 in the nation and in the Valley in the steeple, Praught hopes to continue her high level of performance and post a time similar to what she did in the steeplechase a week ago. She will hit the ground running Saturday at 5 p.m. All-American and Cranston, R.I. native, Petranoff, heads into the meet as the No. 3 ranked javelin thrower in the nation. She holds the top spot in the Valley and looks to improve upon her school record and personal-best mark of 173-03 set two weeks ago at Illinois State's lone home meet of the season. The field of throwers she will face consists of the two women ranked ahead of her on the NCAA best-list, and will prove to be a battle for not only the top spot at the meet, but the nationas well. She will throw the javelin Friday at 2 p.m. As for the men, Mat Smoody, Tim Glover and Curt Jensen will be among those competing for the Redbirds, looking to improve upon their season marks and come out with a win in their respective events. Smoody will get the meet started for Illinois State, as he takes to the starting line at 4 p.m. for the 800-meter run Thursday. He is the newest member of the sub-1:50.00 club, running a 1:49.95 last week at the Vanderbilt Invitational in Knoxville, Tenn. The defending MVC champion in the same event, Smoody hopes to improve upon that time, setting the stage for a regional bout. The defending NCAA Division I National Champion and two-time MVC champion in the javelin, Glover is set to make a run at defending his title from a year ago. Already eclipsing every javelin record in the MVC and Redbird history books, he looks to move his name up the all-time performances list in NCAA Division I, where he currently stands at No. 9. His mark of 266-09 (81.31m) set two weeks ago at the Sea Ray Relays, where he won the Tony Wilson Award for Most Outstanding Male Field Athlete, stands atop the NCAA best-list by 10 feet, three inches and was just 70 centimeters off the Olympic A standard that would allow him to compete for the United States in the 2012 London Olympic Games if he were to place at the trials in June. He will continue his title defense Friday, at 10:45 a.m. Jensen enters the meet ranked second in the Valley in the shot put and among the top-10 in the other two of his disciplines. He is coming off of four-consecutive first-place finishes in the event and holds a career-mark of 59-09.00, tying the Illinois State record in the process. He will face off against some of the nation's best in the shot put completion, Friday, at 2:30 p.m. Fans can follow live updates of the meet online via live results or through Twitter at @ISURedbirds and @ISU_Track_XC. Results and recap of each day of the meet will be posted after each day's events have concluded, with a full recap and results packet posted once the meet has concluded. A live video stream will also be available for those willing to pay per view through Drake's All-Access package online.

OMB updates data center consolidation targets
Friday - 10/7/2011, 11:25am EDT
Jared Serbu, Reporter, Federal News Radio
The Office of Management and Budget has upped the ante on the number of data centers it expects agencies to close, how much money it expects to save, and how deeply it wants to drill down into the federal IT inventory to consolidate infrastructure.
In a conference call with reporters Thursday, Steven VanRoekel, the federal chief information officer, said OMB now thinks agencies will close 472 data centers by the end of 2012, up from a previous estimate the office gave in July of 373 closures. By the end of 2015, VanRoekel said, the goal is 962 centers.
Additionally, OMB is changing its definition of data centers as agencies cull through their IT inventories for consolidation. Before, they were looking at spaces that were larger than 500 square feet. VanRoekel said OMB now wants to capture infrastructure in smaller spaces, like phone equipment closets, where servers might be stored. Agency consolidation plans will now include spaces down to 100 square feet.
"I basically told the team when I came on board that I wanted to scope it so that everything was game," he said. "We should be looking at everything down to wiring closets. We have to look in every corner, and thinking about how we optimize across the entire landscape was the goal."
The new definition will expand the number of spaces that OMB counts in the federal data center inventory to around 2,800, VanRoekel said. The administration had previously been using a figure of about 2,100.
But the new definition will also let agencies find more savings, Van Roekel said. OMB now expects the government to save $630 million in the short-term and as much as $5 billion in the out years, up from previous estimates of $3 billion.
On Friday, the 24 agencies on the CIO council's data center task force updated their strategies for closing data centers. Van Roekel said agencies will compile new closure targets and progress reports by the end of this year.

"Africa is important," according to President Barack Obama who contends the reason why he came to Africa for this three nation tour is that Africa is rising with six out of ten countries on the continent becoming the fastest growing economies.
With that, Thursday in Dakar, Senegal, President Obama participated in bi-lateral meetings with President Macky Sall and held a press Conference with reporters where he answered questions on a host of issues that pertained to matters in the United States, particularly the Supreme Court decisions on Same-Sex Marriage, Voting Rights, NSA Leaker Edward Snowden, and the health of the man he calls his hero, Nelson Mandela.

Oregon Coast Range Erosion Rates
Our first project for the UVM lab was sampling and analysis of sediment the Drift Creek watershed in the Oregon Coast Range. Here, we measured erosion rates similar to those determined by other methods of analysis and demonstrated that even in terrain affected by shallow translational landsliding, cosmogenic nuclides can be used to estimate rates of erosion.

The "all-star" event of the NFL has been thought of as just a bunch of guys playing backyard football; meaning that they do not try hard enough.

HOUSTON, June 15, 2011 /PRNewswire/ -- Dr. Huda Y. Zoghbi, director of the Jan and Dan Duncan Neurological Research Institute (NRI) at Texas Children's Hospital and Baylor College of Medicine (BCM), has been awarded the 2011 Neuroscience Prize of The Peter and Patricia Gruber Foundation for her pioneering work in unlocking the genetic and molecular mysteries behind a number of devastating neurological disorders, including Rett syndrome, spinocerebellar ataxia type 1, and brain tumors called medulloblastomas. To learn more about Dr. Huda Zoghbi and the work that she does, please see: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=JiBbyMeI-sc.
"I am deeply honored by this award. The Gruber Foundation seeks to draw attention to work they believe helps better the world. That was my goal in entering research, and although we have a way to go in the biomedical sciences to really improve the lives of patients with neurological diseases, I am grateful for the foundation's support and for their ongoing efforts to promote awareness of advances in neuroscience," said Zoghbi, who is professor of neuroscience, pediatrics, molecular and human genetics, and neurology at Baylor and a Howard Hughes Medical Institute investigator. "I am grateful to my mentors, particularly Dr. Art Beaudet, and my colleagues and trainees at Baylor College of Medicine as well as my long-time collaborator Dr. Harry Orr. It was really the nurturing Baylor environment that transformed me from a physician into a well-rounded scientist. I would not have had such a rewarding career anywhere else."
Orr, director of the Institute for Human Genetics at the University of Minnesota, is a long-time collaborator with Zoghbi. They co-disc

So the other night I was having this conversation with that fearless young New York thing...one of those unflinching kids who stomps through the deepest South Bronx with blonde twists and Doc Marteens and a clip-on foxtail attached to his stovepipe tight jeans, swathed in layers of scarves and cloak-like coats... I was asking him because you see I've seen these kids vaguely...in the corner of my eyes...cutting through Union Square...down Broadway between 8th street and Canal, clustering through those stores...the Atriums...the H&M's, the Uniqlos. You know those kids...the new urban wave...the fearless fringe...a Style Council 2011, just beginning to explore and challenge the borders of their identity,their imaging, the idea of personal style as persona, as expression , as narrative. So anyway, Fearless Young Thing is schooling me to the ways and by-ways of the New Feeling and the New Look .
Well what do you live for right this minute?" I prompt.
"Well me and my friends are kinda obsessed with wedges right now," he offers.
You mean like...the English 70's haircut brought to the masses by Bowie and his Soul Boys?
FYT, all of 18, looks at me like I'm speaking late period Mesopotamian. "No wedges like...a platform heel." And I have to chuckle in admiration at this New Urban Wave stomping through the deepest South Bronx in...wedges. It is kind of brilliant really... and necessary and important to the history of outlaw New York where fearless young people live a fearless idea of style in tough neighbourhoods and thus change the everyday idea of street wear this way.
I mean who wore the first pair of super-slim Dior Homme jeans in Crown Heights and lived to tell the tale and lived to see a whole sea change of silhouette on the streets on Brrrooklyn? What FYT was telling me was that it had become really important to his generation to not be confined and contained or constrained. Don't tell these kids where the borderlines of hip-hop vs Emo vs minimalism vs post Japanese street style vs androgyny vs London freestyle vs sportswear masculinity lie. When I asked him which designers he lives for, for he told me Sally Lapointe and I was horrified and had to google Lapointe on my I-pad to suss who the funk that might be. When I asked him whose style he looks up to most, his eyes widened and he said with cultish admiration " My friend Mario ". And what was so great about "Mario" I queried .
And this is what he said to me. Mario could wear black on black and every texture of each black was different. Mario could put looks together without thinking about it and stop the kids on the street studying the little details like the fall of the leather pants over the leather shoes. Mario never spends piles on money on clothes and certainly not on four figure designer pieces but he could still make it look like a thing. Mario was free. Mario clocked every new incoming designer on his radar. Mario had a blog called leopardmilkshake.com.
It was an exciting conversation. Freestyle. Stream of consciousness. It gave me hope. Knocked away my jadedeness. The kids in NY are living again and breathing again and letting it fly free. That's so good to see. Now let's see who cuts tracks or clothes or videos from all this and makes a new aesthetic, a new taste, a new sound that will keep that legendary New York beat pumping. Let the children play.
QUI ETES VOUS: MARIO Horne

I wonder if anyone encountered the following problem: upon installing kernel 2.6.30 I am loosing all decoration effects in kdemod 4.2.4 lost transparency lost transition from login screen to desktop, lost some of window decoration effects ("glowing" window edges) I have currently installed: 22.214.171.124 2.6.30-zen2 2.6.30 vanilla 2.6.30-ARCH my system system: Arch linux (up to date, last system update 06-23-09) i686 kdemod 4.2.4 (up to date) i686 nvidia video card Go 7400 nvidia driver 185.18.14 file system: xfs RAM 2GB all kernels with installed nvidia module, so I can boot each kernel straight to GUI without re-installing nvidia driver. Each time I boot to any of my 2.6.30 I am loosing effects, when booting to 184.108.40.206 these effects are restored. My understanding is that not everyone using kdemod 4.2.4. has this problem however these users have different card or linux architecture (64-bit) I don't see any errors in /var/log/Xorg.0.log or /var/log/messages.log I had the same problem with nvidia driver 180.53 when I boot to 2.6.30 and try to disaable first and then re-ebable desktop effects I am getting the following error: Quote:
It seems that there are some changes introduced to the 2.6.30 I wonder if I am the only one with this issue? Any help would be appreciated. Thanks |

So there is no way to turn it off and on right?It's just that game gets real boring with all on at all times...
If you go to your Steam Library, once there Right Click Don't Starve, then select Properties, then select Local Files, then select Verify Integrity of Game Cache. This will turn all the options off.
So to recap.
1. Go to your Steam Library.2. Right Click Don't Starve.3. Select Properties.4. Select Local Files.5. select Verify Integrity of Game Cache.
This will turn off all the trainer options.
On a side note I think that I would actually prefer this kind of trainer than to the standard kind of trainer. There are two reasons for this, firstly it would be nice not having to listen to "ACTIVATED" and "DEACTIVATED" blasting through my speakers, and secondly it's just easier, it's already on and a brief verification of game cache turns it off. That's ease of use I wish all Trainers had.
ROFL I just saw this. I'm in the early access alpha for this game, and I never in a bajillion years would have expected anyone to make a trainer for it. (A) it's a "casual" game, (B) it's basically a Flash game, right? and (C) IT'S A FREAKING ALPHA FOR PETE'S SAKE, hahaha.
You guys are so awesome. It's as if normal levels of awesomeness are simply unacceptable for you, so you go and do something like this.
It's like you slap awesomeness in the face and tell it that it's not awesome enough.
I'm rambling. Tired. Sorry. Plus, I think Mr. Torgue's Campaign of Carnage is starting to affect my neural pathways...
ANYWAY, thanks for all you do, you guys are consistently amazing.
I wouldnt laugh to loud. Minecraft was also in alpha and 'is a casual game' and CH put up a trainer.
Quality counts, not ignorance.

I'm not sure at what point in our nation's history zombies became cool. They've appeared in B horror films for years.
Maybe we can blame Michael Jackson for it. Jackson and his zombie friends danced their way to music history in "Thriller."
It's more likely the fault of popular films today with zombie themes or television shows such as "The Walking Dead."
Audience reactions to a Tuesday night screening of "J. Edgar" starring Leonardo DiCaprio ("Inception") were mixed. While most agreed the film was well made, they also thought some of the interviews they had seen about the movie were deceptive.
That morning DiCaprio appeared on "Good Morning America" and implied that although rumors about Hoover's private life would be explored, the portrayal in the film would be open enough to let the audience reach its own conclusions about those rumors.

November 25, 2012:
Tyre maker MRF and Tulip Telecom will announce their financial results this week. While the former's result has been scheduled for Thursday, the latter will release it on Friday. As natural rubber prices fell during the September quarter, analysts expect a strong show from MRF.
The performance of Tulip Telecom will be keenly watched as the stock took a severe hit after a few of its lenders had liquidated the pledged shares of the promoters in the open market during the last quarter. The sellers include ECL Finance, Religare Finvest and JM Financial. The stock crashed about 60 per cent during July-September.

Bush spent Thanksgiving at the presidential retreat of Camp David.
Names of Americans wounded in the attacks had not been released.
"The [U.S.] Consulate in Mumbai will continue to work with the Indian Police until all missing American citizens have been accounted for," State Department spokesman Gordon Duguid told ABC News. "Our Consulate General in Mumbai is working to identify and assist American citizens who are victims of the attacks."
The most dramatic conclusion came Friday at Chabad House, the Jewish center, with troops rappeling onto the roof from helicopters and the building being peppered with grenades as residents crowded surrounding rooftops to cheer on the attack.
At one point troops were seen dangling what appeared to be a mannequin over the side of the building in an apparent attempt to get the terrorists to reveal themselves.
Despite the blasts, militants inside continued to fire intensely at the advancing troops, until a huge blast rocked the building. The explosion was so powerful that debris flew off the sides of the building.
A few more shots were exchanged before the building went quiet and searchlights could be seen moving through the house. People streamed into the streets singing.
The Indian government reported, however, that five hostages inside the building had died. Among the dead was American rabbi Gavriel Holtzberg, 29, and his wife, Rivka.
A cook for the center had escaped earlier with the couple's 2-year-old son. The boy was unhurt, but his clothing was covered in blood.
The militants, believed to number about 20 to 25, surged into Mumbai's fashionable downtown district on Wednesday firing indiscriminately into hospitals, a train station, a cafe and other sites before taking hostages and preparing for a fight to the death in the two hotels and the Chabad center.
An Indian commando who fought them said the fighters were young men who were ruthless.
"They were the type of people with no remorse. Anybody and whosoever was in front of them, they fired," the commando told a news conference.
Fighting continued into Saturday the Taj hotel despite officials having twice in recent days declared it to be under the control of government troops. The troops blasted a third-floor window with a rocket-propelled grenade. Debris from the blasts showered crowds outside, wounding several bystanders.
At the Trident-Oberoi, the fighting ended after Indian troops claimed they killed the final two attackers who had taken over the hotel, killing staff and tourists and setting the building on fire.
"The hotel is under our control," J.K. Dutt, director-general of India's elite National Security Guard commando unit, told reporters.
Hundreds of people have been freed from the two hotels, many rushed immediately into ambulances. Survivors reported seeing dead bodies in the hallways and lobbies.
In an e-mail the group sent to news organizations, Deccan Mujahideen cited attacks on Muslims in India as the reason for the assault.
"You should know that your acts are not at all left unnoticed; rather we are closely keeping an eye on you and just waiting for the right time to execute your bloodshed," the communique said.

We have a strong team of volunteers who regularly support our work and help us to deliver creative opportunities for our participants. Below are the current volunteering opportunities on offer. Training is given, and DBS check provided.
We currently deliver four weekly SingAbout sessions, in Newport, Ryde, Freshwater and Ventnor. Volunteers are required to support the SingAbout practitioner in the practical elements of running the singing sessions. Each session lasts two hours but the volunteer would be required to attend for two and a half hours, to support in setting up and setting down the room.
Our volunteers also support us in making teas and coffees, and taking the register of attendees. They tend to join in with the singing, but this is not a necessity. The main thing is to be friendly and outgoing, chatting to participants as they arrive and supporting them to join in. Volunteers also provide additional support to new participants who may be apprehensive in a larger group, by befriending them and introducing them to other participants.
This role is specific to supporting a participant with dementia at our weekly SingAbout session in Freshwater on Monday mornings, acting as a buddy to the participant and supporting them in a 1-1 capacity each week.
Would you like to volunteer to assist with our popular weekly DanceMakers session in Newport? This runs on a similar basis to SingAbout, but with a focus on gentle, creative movement. The role involves coming along to the group every week, enjoying yourself and supporting the group leader. The support comes through making teas and coffees in the break, setting up and setting down the room and supporting participants to ensure that they get the most out of the session.
Please get in touch if you'd like to know more.
If you are interested in volunteering with Independent Arts, please contact Caroline on
01983 822437 or at firstname.lastname@example.com

Taylor Swift on American Music Awards Red Carpet | Pictures
Taylor Swift Shimmers and Shines For American Music Awards Arrival
Taylor Swift showed off her legs in a short gold Zuhair Murad number on the American Music Awards red carpet in LA this afternoon. Taylor is a nominee this evening, and she'll also be performing a number off her smash hit album Red. Taylor broke from singing about her own exes to console her friend Selena Gomez this weekend. Taylor and Selena went out for a girlfriends dinner on Saturday evening, just one day after Selena's troubled date with Justin Bieber that didn't end well. Selena had been expected to attend the awards as well, though it's yet to be seen whether she'll opt to avoid any confrontation with Justin instead. As for Taylor's love life, she may have a new man — she's been seen hanging out with One Direction heartthrob Harry Styles. At 18, he'd be another younger man for the 22-year-old Taylor, but that hasn't held her back in the past.

Get in[edit]By taxi[edit]Taxi from Split Airport and Split www.taxi-transfers-split.com and www.transfers-splitairport.com Trogir is in the immediate vicinity of the Split airport and about 25 km (30 minutes by car) from the centre of Split.

The 37 bus is the regular Split-Trogir service and you can use this bus to get to Trogir from Split (or vice versa). It is also relatively cheap to catch a taxi from the airport to Trogir. Get around[edit]The old part of Trogir occupies an island which you can walk around in about 20 minutes. You can also rent a car. [2]

Softball Runs Winning Steak to Six with Sweep of Mt. Aloysius
Both games ended after four and a half innings due to the eight-run rule.
The Bobcats extended their win streak to a season-high six games and improved to 16-11 overall and 11-1 in the AMCC. The Mounties fell to 0-20 overall and 0-16 in conference action.
In the opener, Frostburg State scored all the runs it would need in the first inning, using a three-run homer by junior Trish Brown (Manchester, Md./North Carroll) and an infield single by junior Krystal Dixon (Westminster, Md./Westminster) to take an early 4-0 lead.
The Bobcats blew the game open with seven runs in the second, highlighted by a two-run double by junior Sarah Savoye (Davidsonville, Md./South River).
FSU then added 10 more in the third to build a 21-0 lead. Freshman Meghan Dabkowski (Eastnorthport, N.Y./Commack) had a pair of RBI singles and junior Bethany Seyler (Walkersville, Md./Walkersville) drove in two more runs with a bases-loaded walk and a single.
Mt. Aloysius scored its lone run in the fourth on a fielder's choice by Stacey Hammond.
Junior Jen Cook (Cresaptown, Md./Allegany) retired all nine batters she faced to pick up the victory and improve to 7-5 on the season. She fanned four to increase her FSU single-season record for strikeouts to 71, and she also extended her scoreless innings streak to 20.
Brown finished 2-for-3 with a double, a home run, a walk, five RBIs and three runs scored, while Dixon was 3-for-3 with a walk, three RBIs and three runs scored.
In the nightcap, FSU jumped out to a 2-0 lead in the first on an RBI double by Cook and an infield single by junior Meredith Remus (Bel Air, Md./Bel Air).
The Mounties cut their deficit in half when Hammond drilled a lead-off homer in the second, but the Bobcats used six hits and four Mt. Aloysius miscues to plate nine runs in the home half of the second to open an 11-1 cushion. Seyler smacked a three-run double to the left centerfield fence to highlight the outburst.
Dixon added a two-run double in the fourth to cap the scoring.
Junior Shannon Sturtz (Middletown, Md./Middletown) allowed two hits and one run while striking out five in three innings to earn the win. She is now 4-5 on the year.
Sophomore Lori Potts (Purcellville, Va./Loudoun Valley) allowed just one hit over the final two innings of relief.
Cook went 3-for-4 with a double, two RBIs and a run scored, while Seyler was 2-for-2 with two runs scored and three RBIs.
Senior Amanda Boswell (Marbury, Md./Lackey) went a combined 3-for-7 with two walks, four runs scored and two RBIs in the final regular-season home games of her career.
The Bobcats return to action tomorrow when they visit La Roche in a showdown of the top two teams in the AMCC starting at 3 pm. The Redhawks are 22-4-1 overall and lead the league with a 13-1 mark.
